    Loader for NCAA game xml files. Accepts a Game object. The NCAA's xml needs to be cleaned up slightly by replacing
    elements with interior spaces with 0. Some game files contain inaccurate team IDs, mostly for smaller schools, 
    which explains the hard-coding below. On occasion, usually when a team schedules a lower-division opponent, the 
    NCAA may not have have an ID, which will raise an error.
